Property description
Exuding charm and style in abundance, this stunning detached barn conversion has been a real labour of love, its flawless design providing a perfect lesson in how to blend character and contemporary flair. From what was once a building designed for function over aesthetics, a supremely elegant home has been created, offering all the modern appointments required of a property in the 21st century, whilst retaining the rustic accents which provide that longed for originality and panache. This unique home is nestled at the heart of the West Lancashire Countryside in picturesque Aughton, a delightful village renowned for its luxury country homes and peaceful setting, yet within easy reach of a broad range of amenities within the historic market town of Ormskirk, with its eclectic array of boutique and high street shops, bars and eateries, as well as excellent transport links via rail and road for those wishing to travel further afield, ensuring major commercial centres such as Liverpool and Manchester are within a reasonable commute.
The property takes full advantage of its beautiful setting, with lovely views over the surrounding countryside, whilst the internal accommodation extends to over 1,900 square feet and is finished to an impeccable standard, featuring only the highest quality fixtures and fittings to create a truly sumptuous home. One enters via the welcoming entrance hallway with its spindled staircase to the first floor and convenient cloakroom/WC, and one immediately senses the homely ambiance which pervades throughout, the thoughtfully laid out and flowing floor plan linking the living spaces perfectly, proceeding through into the first of three reception rooms, the 17’ dining room, which is a rather grand affair and a perfect spot in which to host those sophisticated soirees or intimate dinner parties, perhaps moving through the double doors into the sitting room for an after-dinner cocktail or two. This cosy room boasts an attractive feature fireplace for those Winter evenings, and double doors opening directly onto the garden for those Summer months, whilst there is also a separate 17’ lounge, ensuring the family are never short of space in which to relax away the stresses of the day. However, it is the fabulous breakfast kitchen which is the heart of this home, and which really emphasises the property’s country credentials, flooded with natural light via the plethora of windows, and fitted with a traditional range of Farmhouse-style wall and base units in cream, including glazed display units. The contrasting granite work surfaces and double Belfast sink add further stylish touches, whilst all the integrated appliances one would expect of a luxury, contemporary home are provided, including AEG Range-style cooker with extractor canopy, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher.
Two of the four double bedrooms are located to the ground floor, one of which boast a smart en-suite shower rooms and one with WC, whilst to the first floor, the bright landing provides access to two further double bedrooms, both of which enjoy rustic beamed ceilings, with the master bedroom boasting built-in wardrobes and its own modern en-suite shower room. The main family bathroom completes the accommodation, being fully tiled and fitted with a contemporary three piece suite comprising of WC, pedestal wash hand basin and panelled bath with overhead shower.
Externally, a lawned garden can be found to the front of the property, with ornamental lighting and a substantial block-paved driveway providing off-road parking for a number of vehicles, whilst to the rear, the sizeable garden is beautifully maintained, mainly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs to the perimeter, and enjoying a lovely woodland aspect, which one can enjoy whilst savouring a relaxing glass of wine or two on the large stone flagged patio area. Viewing of this fabulous home is essential to appreciate all that it has to offer.
